Edwin van der Sar's contribution to Manchester United
Manchester Unitied is an illustrious football club with an amazing history. People visiting Manchester should definitely check out this club. Nowadays, they still play at the highest level and in the past they have also won a huge number of awards. For a long time, they were even one of the best clubs in the world. We can therefore be proud that several Dutch footballers have played for Manchester. Some footballers only played there for a short period, but goalkeeper Edwin van Der Sar is really an institution there. But what has Edwin van der Sar meant to the club? We will briefly discuss that in this text through fun facts.
Edwin is a standout at European matches
Edwin van der Sar has always been a standout at European matches. Many footballers are good in the league, but they then cannot handle the pressure of top European matches. This does not apply to our goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar. In fact, out of 55 European matches, our Edwin has kept the zero 31 times. That is rather special, because during European matches you don't play against little guys. Partly thanks to Edwin, Manchester won several titles. Back then, it was unfortunately more difficult to bet on football matches. Now, fortunately, you can do so via the website www.xn—mgbabr8icc.net.
Gigantic number of matches on the goal
Edwin van der Sar is not the type of goalkeeper who had to sit on the bench a lot during his time at Manchester United. I am sure that is also one of the reasons why he went on to goalkeep for the club for a long period. In the six seasons at United, he played 265 games under the fine crossbar. So it is fair to say that Edwin van der Sar was equipped with enough match rhythm!
An intelligent and ambitious man
Many people often have an image of footballers as stupid. This is often a misconception and certainly in the case of Edwin van der Sar. Indeed, Van der Sar is known as a very intelligent man with many ambitions. He still regularly dedicates himself to the team and at the same time he has also been director of Ajax for a long time. Ajax is a club where directors who perform poorly do not stay very long, as there is always a lot of pressure on the team. So Edwin van der Sar is not only a good goalkeeper, but also an excellent manager.
